IF | Sight

This is a portrait of how I imagine my love looked like when he got his first pair of glasses as a kid. He's very near sighted, and can't see worth a darn without his glasses. It was his birthday this week, so it's a bit of an homage to him - my muse and supporter. <3

Character Development | Untitled Project

So, thought I'd share some things here that most of you wouldn't be able to see otherwise. I had sat in on a Viz Dev class with a former professor of mine and was able to crank out some things in the few weeks I was able to attend. I developed an interesting, yet simple, story and proceeded to develop some characters around it. Comments welcome :)

Sketches at Coffee Bean, Mahattan Beach

Spent a little time outdoors in the wild, sketching suburban ladies taking a break from shopping at the mall in Manhattan Beach. It was fun and relaxing, and I think I got a couple good ones. :)

Figure Painting Studies - Lighting

Hey all, these are a few studies I did during the Bill Perkins' workshop held at Otis College last fall. I had intended to post these a while ago, but you know how things go. :p The studies are short, maybe 30 minutes a piece, so it was more about getting the shapes/color/value down as quick as possible with the best representation of the lighting situation. I did these in oil on toned paper.
